Abstract
En 中文
We describe and evaluate a new pipelined algorithm for large, irregular all-gather problems. In the irregular all-gather problem each process in a set of processes contributes individual data of possibly different size, and all processes have to collect all data from all processes. The pipelined algorithm is useful for the implementation of the MPI_Allgatherv collective operation of the Message-Passing Interface (MPI) for large problems. By conception, the new algorithm is well suited to implementation on clustered multiprocessors, such as symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) clusters. The new algorithm has been implemented within different MPI libraries. Benchmark results on NEC SX-8, Linux clusters with InfiniBand and Gigabit Ethernet, IBM Blue Gene/P, and SiCortex systems show huge performance gains in accordance with the expected behavior.
